69k limit, on 345k wages. If you’ll make >345k, contribute only (69,000- (345000*.17))=10,350 of your own money.
if you’ll make less than 345k, adjust the $10,350 up to make company contribution + personal = $69,000 or less

this is a big deal to anyone with 2-legged liabilities. A 401k tends to be sheltered, where an IRA is fair game. An umbrella policy, much like term life insurance, is needed once one has their “prides of joy”. Rewards require risk. Hedge it.

I appreciate your response.
guess I’m still not seeing that much of a difference.
401A and In plan conversions of company money are both taxable, so it’s a push in that regard at tax time.
And in the end of the year it’s the same $ amount that is now Roth, albeit the company contributions converted to Roth are still on the “plan” side.
I understand converting the 401A money gets it into the Roth IRA right away in case legislation changes down the road with regard to converting Roth 401K to Roth IRA, or if RMD’s return for Roth 401K.

MBCBP, 401K on Paystubs, 2023 W2
I have discovered a discrepancy on my W2 for 2023, specifically in the box for 401k contributions. It was a bit short of what I had shown on my stubs for total contributions.
I took a look at my pay stubs, and back on the first check in October, a separate line for 401K contributions was added,
with my prior YTD contributions one a now-unused line below it.
Lo and behold, my Oct-Dec contributions, on a new/separate line, total to the exact amount missing from my W2 12D* box.
It seems when accounting implemented the MBCBP, at least some of those who did not opt out had a 2nd 401k line started on their stubs, and the W2 system did NOT include that "new" line.
I did audit taxable wages vs. deductions via my final stub, and those amounts are correct, so the error seems to be limited to the 401k contribution box only.
Anyone else on the MBCBP seeing this?
